Latin America Specialist

Traditional weaver in her home, Sayula, Mexico

Latin America is another of my great loves, a passion ignited by the year I spent living in Mexico. I've traveled extensively through that incredible country, as well as a long-stay in Costa Rica, backpacking through Guatemala, Honduras, and Belize, and in-depth explorations of Bolivia and Chile while I was living in Peru over seven years!

I bring not just knowledge, but a profound personal connection to the region. I speak Spanish fluently, so you can count on my ability to truly understand the pulse of a place and access to hyper-local experiences.

My forte is personalizing journeys for curious, thoughtful travelers like you who want to go well beyond the sights. If you're looking for travel that moves you, teaches you, and helps you connect meaningfully with other cultures and people, we’re likely a great match.

If you’re looking for the best travel consultant for bespoke trips to Latin America, you’ve found me. I make travel easy, stress-free, and meaningful. My specialization is tailoring experiences for Boomers and Gen Xers who still crave adventure but appreciate a slower pace and more comfort. I also love working with Millennial and Gen Z travelers who are eager for authentic, immersive experiences and sustainable travel. I curate options you won’t necessarily find online and ensure every journey is as unique as you are.

Whether you dream of day hikes in the Andes or boat rides in the Amazon, savoring world-class cuisine or simple street food, visiting coffee plantations or learning about quinoa crops, I can make it happen. I've arranged short stays in Mexico, for those wanting to go beyond the resorts to explore its incredible history and culture, pointing them to pop-up markets and offering restaurant recommendations. I have arranged a four-week journey through Peru for a couple in their 70s that blended iconic highlights with ordinary gems—like a tasting menu at Virgilio Martinez’s famed Sacred Valley restaurant, MIL, and a roadside joint that has the best empanadas cooked in a wood-fired oven.

Beyond logistics, I offer something harder to quantify: true care. I know that travel is deeply personal and listen intently to provide exactly what you seek. Whether I’m helping you design the perfect itinerary or adjusting it on the fly when the unexpected arises, you can be sure of "exceptional service and professionalism", as my client Jacquie attests.
